Hello all,
I am the author of the research study featured here. I just want to make this community aware that I did not approve of the title or subtitle of this article, and I have contacted the reporter to request that both of these be changed. He understands and agrees, and the title will soon be changed to: "Study brings undiagnosed adults living with autism out of the shadows: Diagnosis can bring a sense of belonging to adults with autism."
I will repost when I see that the title has been updated.
Thank you!
-Laura Lewis
